We will have such-a-one, for he sings prettily; we will invite such-a-one to a ball, for he dances well; we will have such-a-one at supper, for he is always joking and laughing; we will ask another because he plays deep at all games, or because he can drink a great deal. These are all vilifying distinctions, mortifying preferences, and exclude all ideas of esteem and regard. Whoever is had (as it is called) in company for the sake of any one thing singly, is singly that thing, and will never be considered in any other light; consequently never respected, let his merits be what they will.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27751</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All men [are] of one metal, but not in one mold. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27034]]></link><description><![CDATA[All men [are] of one metal, but not in one mold.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/27034</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I think we must quote whenever we feel that the allusion is interesting or helpful or amusing. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4672]]></link><description><![CDATA[I think we must quote whenever we feel that the allusion is interesting or helpful or amusing.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/4672</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2522]]></link><description><![CDATA[For every minute you are angry you lose sixty seconds of happiness.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/2522</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians.

It is not some crack in an otherwise flawless stone. It is, quite spectacularly I think, art which is not based on the subjugation of one half of the species. It is art which will take the great human themes --love, death, heroism, suffering, history itself --and render them fully human. It may also, though perhaps our imaginations are so mutilated now that we are incapable even of the ambition, introduce a new theme, one as great and as rich as those others --should we call it "joy"?.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3309</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A promise is a cloud; fulfillment is rain. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48398]]></link><description><![CDATA[A promise is a cloud; fulfillment is rain.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/48398</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66343]]></link><description><![CDATA[I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/66343</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Since the earthquake struck in October, these helicopters have been crucial in transporting food and non-food items, like medicine and ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29098]]></link><description><![CDATA[Since the earthquake struck in October, these helicopters have been crucial in transporting food and non-food items, like medicine and warm clothing and they have helped to prevent many deaths.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/29098</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[There are fagots and fagots. [Fr., Il y a fagots et fagots.] ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9162]]></link><description><![CDATA[There are fagots and fagots. [Fr., Il y a fagots et fagots.]]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/9162</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Never Explain - your Friends do not need it and your Enemies will not believe you anyway. -Elbert Hubbard. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16913]]></link><description><![CDATA[Never Explain - your Friends do not need it and your Enemies will not believe you anyway. -Elbert Hubbard.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16913</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The moment we want to believe something, we suddenly see all the arguments for it, and become blind to the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3094]]></link><description><![CDATA[The moment we want to believe something, we suddenly see all the arguments for it, and become blind to the arguments against it.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/3094</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[But with the morning cool repentance came. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53825]]></link><description><![CDATA[But with the morning cool repentance came.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/53825</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Treat others as thou wouldn't be treated.
